Role Overview:

Bardel is looking for a 2D Storyboard Director to lead the visual storytelling for an original anime-inspired project, translating a web comic into dynamic storyboards and animatics for a proof-of-concept trailer and future animated series.

What You’ll Do:

  • Lead the storyboard team from concept through animatic delivery.
  • Translate scripts and web comic panels into compelling, cinematic storyboards that enhance pacing, emotion, action, and character performance.

  • Review storyboards and animatics, providing clear, actionable creative feedback.
  • Collaborate with the Animation Director, Producer, and other department leads to ensure a unified creative vision.
  • Balance creative ambition with production goals, identifying risks and helping the team deliver on schedule.
  • Help establish storyboard workflows, visual standards, and documentation that can scale into series production.

Requirements

What You’ll Bring:

  • Significant storyboard experience on animated productions, with experience directing or leading storyboard teams preferred.
  • Strong understanding of cinematic storytelling, shot composition, camera movement, pacing, and character acting.
  • Ability to adapt graphic storytelling from comics or graphic novels into engaging animated sequences.
  • Experience creating and reviewing storyboards and animatics using Storyboard Pro or similar software.
  • Strong communication and leadership skills with the ability to mentor artists and provide clear creative direction.
  • Comfortable collaborating in an evolving development environment where ideas continue to be refined.
  • Passion for anime-inspired storytelling and visual direction, with an understanding of the pacing, cinematography, and visual language commonly found in the genre.
